Average Rating: Rating: - More memory than I know what to do with. I popped this into my Canon S100 and with the default resolution, got a reading of 1478 shots available! That's an incredible amt of space and for someone heading off on an extended trip, it should be quite a boon. I have been following CF costs on a dollar-per-meg basis for some time, and while the newest & largest cards have tended to carry a premium, this one does not. It is roughly fifty cents per meg, less than 1/4 of what it cost per meg only 18 months ago! Rating: - Poor quality The card stopped functioning properly in about a week after I've started using it with Minolta DImage 7i (roughly 200 shots). Unexpectedly a "Card Error" message appeared on the screen and 80% of the images were severely damaged. I've tried to delete everything, format the card and start all over again, but of no avail (the OS doesn't seem to mark bad sectors and prevent them from further usage). I'm bitterly disapointed in Viking products - nothing like that happened to me with Lexar card, which I've been using for awhile. Rating: - Wonderful Card I've owned two of these cards and used them with a Canon S110 and a Canon S200. They have been wonderful; 256 MB allows me to take more pictures (~243) than I've ever been able to in a single day, and at highest quality (2 MP, jpeg compression). The only time this hasn't been enough was on a multi week vacation. Buy a few if you're planning to take photos on a trip -- I'd gotten so used to having unlimited photos that it was difficult to take fewer. Speed has been great, and was one of the reasons I initially chose this card. I've never had any formatting or data loss problems, and I've used the cards in both cameras, a card reader, and a card reader in an HP printer. I use my card intensively, constantly taking photos, uploading them, then deleting them. I highly reccomend it, and it's a great value.
